Ingredients

  • 2 small cups of raw rice
  • 2-3 tablespoons of cold, thoroughly cooked rice
  • 2-3 tablespoons of sugar
  • 1 tsp yeast
  • Cooking oil
  • Salt
  • approximately 1 cup of water

Instructions 

  • Place raw rice in a bowl and rinse briefly with cold water. Then cover with cold water, cover, and let soak for at least 6 hours or overnight
  • At the same time, cook some rice thoroughly until mushy, let it cool, and store it for later.
  • Later, put the rice from the water into a blender with the previously cold cooked rice, add a little water and blend to a slightly grainy dough
  • Place the flour in a bowl, add the sugar, salt, and yeast, and mix well. Add a little water if needed. The dough should have roughly the consistency of pancake batter. Then let the dough rise for about half an hour
  • Next, heat the poffertjes pan and pour about half a teaspoon of batter into each mold, then use a ladle to pour the batter into the molds
  • After about a minute, carefully turn the beignets over using a wooden skewer and cook for another minute until golden brown; the massa are then ready
  • Serve the Massa with Kankan and enjoy it best while hot.
